AGH!! *Throws hands in the air* IT CAME! And it is soooo cool! And there were so many pretty goodies!! *Ahem* I mean, my one tiny thing was so pretty. Pictures will come soon, I'm unfortunately up to my eyeballs in things I need to do but don't want to. But, WOW! I totally was spoiled!

Yay!! My package from pinkleo arrived today!! I should have taken a picture of the little bubble envelope before I opened it because it was COMPLETELY stuffed. In fact, she wrote on the outside, "no room for note!" which made me laugh because it really was stuffed to the gills.

For the record: I made the kawaii heart as the main project but when I fused it, I left it in for too long. The background was supposed to be pink with purple spots. Here is where I got the idea (from R_S's wist):

After I burned it, I couldn't rightly give it to her as her swap piece. So I scrapped it as the main and gave it as a bonus.

The HK necklace- I printed up the HK pics but the ink smeared and I was really disappointed by that. So, that could not be her swap piece either. Grrrr. So she got another bonus. Except I wasn't happy with how it laid after I put the necklace together so it was her freebie. I told her she could keep it or not. I am very happy to see how much she liked it after all.

The black pendant was just a bunch of extra/leftover pieces that I fused, for fun. It came out fine so I gave it to her as a bonus. Again. LOL

The rainbow wall hanging was her actual swap piece. I made the weaved piece and shrunk it. I liked how it came out and decided to fuse it to something and make it a piece of art. I like how it came out!

Cool shrinky discovery I made........I was shrinking the black pieces and they got stuck to the rainbow strips. So I took the pan out of the oven and tried to pull the rainbow pieces off the black ones. But they were rubbery so they just stretched way out. When they let go, they curled up like crazy. Kind of like when you curl ribbon for gifts. So cool!!!! They cooled off and became hard in their curled state.

So if you want curly cues, stretch the pieces in the middle of the shrink process.

I'm glad you all like my shrinky work. It's such a fun medium. And I am thrilled to bits that Rainbow_Storms likes what I gave her. I'm still waiting for mine. (Stupid mail. )
